Abstract
In the present paper, we focus on the melting heat transfer characteristics of Casson fluid involving thermal radiation and viscous dissipation. To this end, the governing partial differential equations (PDEs) are transformed into the ordinary differential equations (ODEs) via the similarity variables. Besides establishing a homotopy-based methodology and its optimization performed in MATHEMATICA package BVPh2.0, the present findings are compared and validated by those available results in the literature. It can be shown that regardless of the variable fluid properties, this methodology predicts the heat transfer rate with and without melting effect at any Prandtl number. Furthermore, it is seen that the velocity distribution is significantly affected by the melting parameter.
